TLDR : Answer Summary

The user inquires whether a visa is required for a six-week visit to Thailand in December. The community responses indicate that visa requirements depend significantly on the traveler's nationality. For users with UK passports, responses generally confirm that they can enter Thailand visa-free for up to 60 days upon arrival. It is advised to check official Thai immigration sources or the Thai Embassy website for the most accurate and up-to-date information.

Depends what country you are from 1st… some countries are Visa exempt. Others, for the most can have a 2 months visa on line…

Google and official Thai websites explaining the matter clearly are a great invention. First you do your initial research and the hard work and then you come to a forum to clear up any unclear details. That's how it works

Please clarify why a visa is issued with English as a native language.

A visa it’s not issued if your native language is English, but maybe more correct to say that the majority of the official English speaking countries are entitled to visa exemption.
